Extra Breakfast Tips to Attract Guests

You might be surprised how many of the respondents to the question "What did you like most about your stay?" would answer "The hotel breakfast". The hotel breakfast is one of the most important services a hotel can offer. They can very easily become a reference point for guest satisfaction. So how do you prepare them so that customers might just like to come back to you because of it?

Your breakfast concept depends on a number of factors, such as the category and class of the accommodation, its size, the composition of the clientele, as well as the location. Let's take a look at the key points you should pay attention to that can make breakfast a competitive advantage for your hotel.

3 Tips to Increase Your Hotel's Ratings and Reviews

1. Organic, Dia, Low in Calories

Food intolerances, allergies and different eating styles – all of these are on the rise and deserve your attention. Guests are guaranteed to appreciate an organic corner, a dia corner, or a farmer's corner. At the same time, the idea of offering something local for breakfast has also come to the fore. People like to taste the country's specialities and the locals, on the other hand, like to enjoy what they know. Homemade honey, eggs and coffee from a local roastery all add to the credibility and value of your offer.

Try investing in low-calorie food choices. Sure, eggs and bacon are typical breakfast favourites, but if you also think about those who are guarding their slim figure and health, you won't go wrong. Don't forget to announce the special offer in advance, for example on your website.
Extra TIP: Ask your chef to create a "Fit Menu of the Day" that includes only low-fat products. For example, a "Fit Plate" or a "Fit Bowl". A ready-made, tasteful and low-fat solution will help more than one traveler to choose from the many delicacies offered at the buffet.

2. Label Your Food

A very common mistake with hotel buffet breakfasts is a lack of labelling. Even when hoteliers and managers are confident that they have put together the perfect breakfast menu, they often fail to adequately inform guests about what they are actually putting on their plate. This leads to misunderstandings, guests may be disappointed, not enjoying their breakfast as they had hoped, and the hotel dealing with complaints and wasting unnecessary amounts of ingredients. To avoid this, make sure your meals are labelled with names, ingredients, allergens. Preferably in at least one foreign language.

Extra TIP: To emphasise the high quality, be sure to write some "catchy" notes on each plate, such as the name of the chef who created the recipe or the origin of the products used, especially if they come from a local market.

3. A Proper "Breakfast Atmosphere"
It is very common to offer breakfast in the same restaurant where your guests will later come to enjoy their lunch or dinner. Especially for this reason, it is important to create a distinctive "breakfast atmosphere" in the morning to help guests start the day in the best possible way. Choose pleasant music, interesting table settings and prepare the staff for a kind of "breakfast mood". Try to present everything differently, even the products served during breakfast and dinner. You can also offer guests a daily newspaper or the hotel magazine.
Extra TIP: If your budget allows, choose special uniforms for the staff for the morning as well, which will give the whole environment a unique character.

The last interesting tip is the so-called "front cooking". Guests particularly like it when the staff prepares dishes with ingredients they choose themselves. Whichever of our tips you choose, we believe it will help you to make your guests happier.
